ed the action of the senate and
thought that no man should be
ostracised on account his politics,
and while he hOnored the party
that aided in the freedom of the
colored race, he thought that the
debt of gratitude had been paid
and the cOlOred man was free to
act, think and support any party
he pleased. In conclusion he said
better days were coming and that
the Negro would be independent
in politics.
Mr.. Taylor, of Kansas City,
Kansas, was present and endors-
ed the party and said that Mr..
Petway III his state would be

Taylor criticised Senator Ingalls,
and the republican party severely.
Mr.. Williams was the next speak
er. He thought that the republi-

there are bad men in the church,
should the church be disbanded,

party had made few blunders

Mr.. Geo. I'll. Richardson, sold
that he believed in independence
in politics, such independence
that denounces policy and not

Mr.. A. st. A. Smith, arose and
received the usual enthusiastic
applause. He said that he was
as much of a republican as Mr..
Williams, but he wanted it under

THE MATHEWS REJECTION.
TIE "BEE" ENDORSED BY THE PRES
IDENT OF THE FAMOUS MANHAT.
TAN LEAGUE.

Editor Washington Bee
/ have but a few
words to say upon the Matthews
question in this note, as | am pre-
pairing an exhaustive article in
answer to Senator J. j. ingalls,
for one Of our leading magazines
and an open letter to the Senator,
/ desire as an American citizen to
indorse your editorial position and
your manliness in advocating Mr..
Matthews confirmation.
The entire negro race has been
insulted by a Republican Senate,
and the insult will be resented in
1888. For white men to tell us
who are our leaders is presump.
tion to be expected from such
class of humanity and we are dis.
tinctly told by Mr.. ingalls, that the
negro has no right to be else than
a Republican.
lfthis be true, the present condi-
tion of the negro as his citizenship
is concerned is no Improvement
over that of slavery days. The Re
publican party, the party of prom
ises, must be taught lesson, and
a severe one. 1t must be made to
remember that the American Ne
gro recognizes no longer the party
lash; that we propose to exercise
our own will and inclination with
out party dictation that We pro-
pose to vote according to our con-
scientious opinions; that black
man has as much right to be a
Democrat as a white man has.
MIR. ingalls, has much to learn
and among his most needed requi-
sites are common sense and diplO-
macy.
Go in your good work and your
race will support you.
Yours hastily and fraternally,
Howard l.. Smith.

"The Race Problem"

1t was below zero last evening but that
did not prevent the assembling of large
audience at the Casino to hear Hon. B K.
Bruce, of Mississippi, speak on THE Race
Problem in America. 1t was representa-
tive audience, composed of the most prom.
minent and most cultured people of the
city. Judge G. B. Grant, introduced ex-
Senator Bruce to the audience in short
but very interesting speech, and one that
contained one or two little war memories
which came in most appropriately. Mr..
Bruce, then began his address and imme-
diately fixed the attention of his audience
holding iJ closely for over an hour and a
half. He stood upon the stage IN full
view of the audience, and spoke in per-
fectly free and easy manner entirely with
out notes. To fine physique and COM
manding personal presence he adds an
agreeable and we'll modulated voice, clear
as bell, and a ready and choice COM
mand language. He treated his subject
in Il broad, intelligent light, portions of
his address bearing unmistakable evil
dence of deep thought and careful study
by mastery mind. The address was
both historical and argumentative, and
was repeatedly interrupted by spontane-
Gus Outbursts of applause.
Although the lecture treated in seri-
Gus and scholarly manner of one of the
most important issues confronting the
American people to-day, it was not un-
relieved by sallies of wit and dry humor,
greatly appreciated by the auditors while
at other times the speakers earnestness
and feeling in speaking of his race were
communicate d to the audience, the deep
! silence telling how closely their attention
was held. 1t was splended effort, re-
plete with points we'll stated and well
upheld, while new light was thrown on
the progress and on the future OF the
cOlOred race in the south, much of the
information given in the lecture being Ell.
tirely new to the majority of those
present.
Seeing that the interest and sentiment
of his audience was with him in marked
degree, Mr.. Bruce was led to oversteI
the hour which he had allowed himsel
for his lecture, and he spoke nearly three
quarters of an hour longer, the fact thai
the fight of time was not noticed by the
audience proving the degree of interes
which he rad aroused. By the MINING
JOURNAL the lecture is regarded as thu
finest ever delivered in the city
certainly the best for many years. Sucf
too, was the opinion of many of thos
present, who at the close OF the address
came up to meet the speaker of the eve
ming and to congratulate, him upon nj
effort. Mr.. Bruce is unquestionably al
eloquent and an able speaker, one en-
dOwed by nature with the gift of orator
in marked degree. 1t is to be hope
that this, his first appearance before
Marquette audience, will by no mean
prove to be his last.-The Michiga
Mining journal.

A PLEA FOR INDEPENDENCE IN POL

DAY NIGHT. MR.. TAYLOR OF KAN
SAs CITY, KANSAS, SPEAKS.

Never before sinceEthe organiza
tiOn of this society has there been
such a lively and interesting dis.
cussiOn as took place on last Thurs
day evening at the meeting of this
society. The church was crowded
from door to pulpit and it was
sometime before the disbutants
could control themselves. After
a piano solo by Mrs. Slye, the
Essayist, Mr.. B. f. Petway, of
Memphis, Tenn, was introduced
aud read paper on a
PLEA FOR INDEPENDENCE IN POLITICS.
Mr.. Petway was logical and elo.
quent and was many times applaud.
ed. A few extracts from his essay
will show the readers of the BEE
how he handled the question.
This government, he said, under
which We live is essentially a gov.
ernment of, for and by the people.
They make and unmake as they
desire. Today one party or its
representatives administer the gov
ernment to sorrow, another accord
ing as the will OF the people may
fluctuate and if the laws are bad
or defective the people have no
despotic or arbitrary rules upon
whom to fix the blame. They are
reponsible. am fully aware that
some are stronger than others men
tally as we'll as physical and can
by force OF will power influence the
weaker. X We fall short
of the standard by which common
sense men are measured. None
will understand me to mean that
we can be absolutely independent
in politics or anything else. We
are in measure dependent upon
our neighbor for his views to ena-
BILE us to form our conclusion.
Yet we can, if We will make up our
own opinions and act upon them
Can any one deny that this is not
a correct diagram of our case polit-
ically speaking. We have been
the stepping stone from which 9th
ers have leaped into political hon.
ors and wealth, but as none of us
| are so ''black as we are painted"
